Douglas County voters echoed State of Colorado voters in almost all races and issues except the contest for U.S. Senate. (County voters leaned heavily toward Pete Coors over winner Ken Salazar.)
County voters approved measures to increase the tobacco tax, extend funding for the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District, and fund expanded light rail. They very narrowly approved renewable energy, but gave a thumbs-down to changing Colorado’s
Electoral College system and to lifting limits on builder liability.
